The University and its offices do not assume responsibility to students or other persons for the loss of money or valuables, damage to property, or injuries on the premises including but not limited to damage from electrical overload, water, fire, or smoke. Students are encouraged to check if they are covered under your parents’ or guardians’ homeowners’/tenants’ insurance. If not, we strongly recommend that students arrange insurance and protection against such losses.
This protocol should only be initiated in cases of large-scale theft and property damage. If it can be resolved via mediation, a mediation should be arranged first.
Immediate Action: When students report stolen or damaged property by another student or unknown individual, RA will refer the student to UCPD/CPD to make a police report. Police will handle any investigation needed.
Secondary Action: Inform the reporting party that they may want to submit a claim to their insurance company (if covered).
Third Action: If the student does not feel secure in their space, the responding RA should contact the Pro-Staff On-Call.
Reporting Action: RA will document the incident with an Incident Report and a CARE Report. Pro-Staff will also provide an Incident Report if involved.
